I'm a Raider, just like my niggas befo' me
But I was a thief wit out the open face gold theeth
And En Vogue was some fine ass Oakland Raidettes
And Too $hort was the first Oakland Raider on the set
Now Who man was a Raider when he was fuckin wit debt
And anascory X was a Raider when he was awarded a stake
And Dangers Dane
Was a Raider when he was callin hoes names
But I know
From the Lake on Sundays, to the five O
Now we to Eastmont wit the sideshows
But it's fun, and I'm famous, but I aint tryna die tho
Niggas be goin out in a gang but not I tho
If I have to go back to dope, I'm slangin fo survival

Now Dru, pimp he do
If you hoe-in then he pimpin you
Tried it fo' 30 days, I aint lyin I aint wit it dude
A baby sittin job, Oh my God that's a job
But I still wanna do it 'cause that's 100% I

Chorus 2x

Heirogliphics been raided from '93 to infinity
Some unda ground shit that just shook the fuckin industry
And Humpty wit his gon' ass, a raiderin his own right
Da whole D, you can't fa get you amped on sight
Now mistic, she da only female Raider I know
You da shit baby girl, I'm just lettin you know
And last but not least,
Tupac Shakur nigga Rest In Peace

I'm from da city of dope, the town of the crack
I'm from da city of pimps, the town of the mac
East Oakland!
He told you, ebonics speech broken
The Luniz bout to have the streets loc'in
Down South keep smokin
Hey we got the killer 'dro
And 8 heiron kilos fo days
It's the city of worriors, home of da A's
Where niggas get sideways
Shoot outs from highways nigga
Yo, East Oakland Bitch!
I'm a Raider!

Damn, what about me? It's my curry baby. I'm not a Oakland Raider? God dayum
I'm the first muh fucka on T.V. I was the first one that did HBO. First one did
Apollo. I can't get qualified bein Hall of Pimpology as a Oakland Raider what?
Uh, I'm da first one on dubs what? I'm a Oakland Raider baby. That's right,
Representin da town. East side Oakland
You know how we do it East Side O, nigga straight up take yo hoe. I was all day
Long, you know how we do it in da town, Crystal, Big dank, dats da way we role,
Ol school sittin on 20's. It don't make no difference. Floatin, doin it all,
Ghetto nigga from da Eastmont Mall.
